Ancient Treasure Map

Was just thinking it would be cool to have a harder version of the treasure maps.

They would be purple and titled something different, like 'Ancient treasure map' or 'Pirate Lord's treasure map' or 'Dweomer's treasure map'. The map might have multiple locations you have to travel to before actually finding it, or perhaps they all end in 'dangerous' areas. Delves or dungeons, maybe.

Each chest would also have a guardian or challenge of some type to overcome - I was thinking it should possibly be challenging enough to be group content. Something on the level of a dolmen or perhaps a weaker world boss. You dig up the 'Ancient' map and a bunch of ghostly warriors spawn to protect it. Digging up the 'Pirate lord's' chest would cause the group of pirates that has been 'trailing you' to finally attack. The Dweomer map could lead you into a Dweomer ruin, with a very large construct of some sort protecting the chest.

The chests, of course, would be lootable by the group and have slightly better treasure than a standard chest.

I think hunting down treasure chests as a group could be a lot of fun :)

    Okay this sounds fun and neat.

    I think it depends on the rewards though and how many can access the chests but it's a nice basis for some new group content.

    The quest on Stros M'kay is a lot like how you describe in the way you have to track down the clues. Strangely, for a brand new player oriented zone, it is easily one of the quests that requires the most thinking to accomplish the first time through.

    Do you happen to remember where you pick that quest up?

    The Quest is called "Izad's Treasure" and it is started at the base of a wrecked ship south of Saintsport.
